I kept the 25 gram paper products; had to add 4 tablespoons water then
removed 2 1/2 tablespoons from the newspaper to process it - all the
others were standard 2 cups water. Early comments - the white copy
paper is very smooth, blended beautifully. The manila folder is
fluffier than newspaper and blended as well as the copy paper.
Cardboard was a surprise - took longer to pulp and looks more like
concrete than the others and was the only one that needed to be mixed
by hand. Camera is charging so hopefully pictures tomorrow.
1/4 cup of portland cement was added to each type of paper; paper was
pulped in the soaking water between 45-60 seconds, blended with cement
for 30 seconds. The blender was rinsed between batches. 16 fluid oz
of margarita mix, 4 oz of tequila and six ice cubes were added to the
experimenter to help with processing.
